Lu Chenxing's offer almost made Luoluo's little head stop working, but after a moment, she came back to her senses and excitedly said, "It's a deal!"
"Okay, do you have the contract with you? Let's sign it now." Lu Chenxing couldn't help but smile when he saw how smoothly things were going.
"No, but I have a template here. I'll just modify and print it."
So, He Shuqing led them to the government's printing room to print, and along the way, Lu Chenxing noticed that Luoluo kept wanting to say something, but she held back, her face puffed up from holding it in.
It wasn't until they had both signed the contract that Luoluo finally let out a sigh of relief and asked with a smile, "I thought you were going to ask for an exorbitant price, so why did you only ask for so little?"
Hearing this, Lu Chenxing couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, "They are just two Tier 1 blue cards; they're not worth much to begin with. Besides... this is the price for Loshen City, so it should be the same for you."
After a pause, Lu Chenxing chuckled again, "However, if you're not distributing them to the public for free, then I could make a fortune!"
"Hmph! Dream on! How could our Baihua City be inferior to Loshen City? If you can distribute them for free, so can we!" Luoluo said, hands on her hips, like an unyielding child.
He Shuqing, who was standing by, merely watched the two with a gentle smile, and her evaluation of Lu Chenxing couldn't help but rise a little more in her heart.
Inside, the contract was being signed, while outside, Zhan Wushuang was catching up with Dan Qiuchan. After a few words, they returned to the topic of the Plague.
As soon as the topic came up, Dan Qiuchan became furious, "I really don't know what these scoundrels from the Church of the Myriad Gods are trying to do!"
"No matter what they want to do, whatever they plan, we must make sure they can't do it!" Zhan Wushuang said in a deep voice, a glint like a blade flashing in his eyes.
Seeing Zhan Wushuang speak like this, as if he already had a plan, Dan Qiuchan couldn't help but ask, "What do you plan to do?"
"Aren't they spreading the Plague everywhere? I plan to have Little Lu draft a document stating that if any city experiences a similar situation, they only need to transfer 150,000 to his card and provide 5% of the subsequent profits, and then they can directly use these two cards!"
"I'll make sure their Plague can't have any effect. At the same time, we'll hold a remote report meeting to inform the higher-ups about this matter and increase the search efforts against the Church of the Myriad Gods!" Zhan Wushuang had clearly thought this through long ago and was just waiting for Dan Qiuchan to arrive.
"Okay! I support it!" Dan Qiuchan immediately nodded. As a body cultivator on the cultivation side, she hated these rats from the Church of the Myriad Gods the most! They were annoying, sneaking around, and she wished she could tear them to pieces!
With matters on both sides settled, and after Lu Chenxing drafted one last document, the business here came to an end.
Without any delay, Lu Chenxing swiftly returned to his Card Shop, sifting through the large pile of books spread out on his desk, searching for a trophy that could emit constant light.
There were many things that could emit constant light; some were man-made, some were natural ores, but those that could be considered trophies were few.
As the name suggests, trophies are things obtained only after participating in the slaying of exotic beasts, or certain associated ores, or certain organs from the exotic beast's corpse, but without exception, one must personally acquire them.
With his current strength at Tier 1 perfection, the only places he could go were Tier 1 and Tier 2 secret realms. These primary secret realms were mostly fragments of certain low-level worlds, making it difficult to find things that emitted constant light.
He spent another afternoon carefully searching, and finally, Lu Chenxing identified his target: the long night pearl!
"long night pearl, Tier 2 material, an associated ore of the Screaming Bat. It does not emit light itself, but after being placed in a lit environment for twenty-four hours, it will emit a constant faint glow, often used for decoration or research..." Lu Chenxing's face darkened when he read the last sentence.
Although he didn't know why he needed to find materials that emitted constant light, the stronger the material he found, the better!
Could this item, used for decoration or research, truly serve as a promotion material?
But unfortunately, no one could answer him, because he had never even heard that promoting from Tier 1 to Tier 2 required materials!
People usually only needed materials to perceive relevant rules when promoting at Tier 6 or 7. Why would he need these for Tier 1 and Tier 2?
"Forget it, I'll keep looking." Lu Chenxing continued to read. Just as he was about to finish the book in his hand, he saw another item.
"The corpse of the Sun-Glimmering Golden Cicada. The Sun-Glimmering Golden Cicada, a mid-Tier 2 material, is renowned for containing a trace of light, fire, and mental mixed rules. Its corpse has extremely high value and can be used for alchemy, forging, and comprehending related rules..."
Upon seeing this information, Lu Chenxing's eyes immediately lit up. This was what he was looking for!
He then took out his phone and searched for information on the Sun-Glimmering Golden Cicada. The latest news was actually from three years ago!
"After five years, the lowest-tier exotic beast, the Sun-Glimmering Golden Cicada, reappears! Secret realm exotic beasts riot, dozens killed or injured!"
Lu Chenxing frowned, clicked on the report, quickly scanned it, and then let out a long sigh, "It only appears once every five years, and it appears randomly. Forget it, I'll just honestly go get the long night pearl."
Although the Sun-Glimmering Golden Cicada seemed to be a mid-Tier 2 material, it had extremely wide uses. For example, it could be added during forging to give weapons a trace of rule power, which would make them essentially unrivaled below Tier 6, eliminating the need to change weapons.
Therefore, this kind of item was not even sold on the market; it was almost monopolized by those aristocratic families. Even if one wanted to buy it, there was no opportunity, and no one would sell it unless absolutely necessary.
Although he said he would honestly go get the long night pearl, Lu Chenxing still refused to give up and flipped through the books several more times, only to find that at this time, only these two items could serve as trophies for him; there was nothing else!
The rest were things like unicorn horns, phoenix feathers, Golden Crow feathers, and so on. With Lu Chenxing's current strength, he could barely even see these items in reality, let alone use them as trophies.
"It seems I only have one choice: this long night pearl, which is used for decoration... Sigh~" No matter how unwilling Lu Chenxing was, there was only this one material available below Tier 3. After all, he couldn't spend two years waiting for a Sun-Glimmering Golden Cicada.
After making his decision, Lu Chenxing began to pack his bags, then tossed the packed bags into his spatial ring, which he had exchanged for a full five hundred military merits.
After all, he couldn't use his personal spatial dimension anymore; the spatial fluctuations of the two were quite different, and an observant person could tell at a glance.
After locking the shop door, Lu Chenxing posted a notice on the door stating that he would be out for a few days, then clapped his hands in satisfaction, "Let's go!"
